My name is Melinda Valdez and I taught Kindergarten at Steubing Elementary for 14 years. This is my 2nd year teaching first grade and I love this grade level! I graduated Magna Cum Laude from UTSA with a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies with an emphasis in Reading and obtained Early Childhood and ESL certifications. I am married and we have 2 adult children. It has a been a joy to teach at Steubing for 16 years where my own children attended elementary school.
